ALL DONE!!!

update: I finished one, and started leg of the second… I can’t wait to finish these!

I LOVE these socks.

So much so that I am not even annoyed that I totally messed up the chart for the foot and had to rip back like 20 rows… Turn out to be a good thing as I had gone down to size 0 (pattern calls for 2s, but I always have to go down about 2 sizes to get gauge) and that turn out to be a little too tight. They would have been wearable, but the cuffs were definitely snug so I went back up to 1.5s (though I’ll probably go down to 1s for the heel and foot for a slightly snugger fit).

I am super impressed with my dye job too… this was my second attempt at dying and I really like the results! I used my cell phone to take the pictures and it doesn’t really do the colors justice. Hopefully I’ll get around to taking some better pictures soon.
